Why is "the arrogance" of Muhammad Ali and example to follow

ISIS is destroying Arab-Islamic values and way of life and doesn't care about the rest.

Whoever saw him move in the ring, could have written a long text on the definition of swag, elegance and grace. "Float like a butterfly, and sting like a bee" is the best known description of what Muhammad Ali made out of boxing. He was not about brute force, but about style. However, the true style of Ali was often at display outside of the ring, in his powerful speech and inspiring quotes, but above all, in his struggle against racism, against imperial wars, and for his people. Ali was "the greatest" in the ring, and he was always keen on reminding everyone of it. Therefore, many say Muhammad Ali was arrogant, and consider this as one of his downsides. . ​ Read more

« The terrorists want to destroy our way of life », or « they hate us because of who we are » are the most common held opinions by western politicians and opinion makers when it comes to explaining why attacks are taking place in Europe.

As I sat behind my desk to type these words, my wife and two daughters were preparing to go for a walk in the city, and suddenly, all I could feel was one emotion: Fear.I was afraid that while in the metro, or while enjoying the new pedestrian parts of the city, or while sitting on the terrace of a café, some Daesh terrorist, blinded by hatred and fascist ideology, will open fire and kill my family.

And they are worth an answer.So why are Muslims so violent?

When a friend of mine called me this morning telling me that the British tabloid The Sun dedicated a whole article to me I thought he was confusing me with someone else. “The sun? shouldn’t they be picking on some model with an anorexia problem or some Tory lord who can’t keep his pants on around young girls?”.Ever since it was clear that Jeremy Corbyn makes a realistic chance of winning the contest for labour leadership, sleeping dogs have been called into action.

I spoke to few people about it, mainly my comrades, and fellow travelers on the road of struggle. “Like a whisper” it was, in our meetings, a secret unspoken, yet so powerful that it craved the light.

The nature of the beast!

Dyab Vs. Rik Van Cauwelaert: Game, set, match!

Palestine is burning, experiencing the wrath of the state of Israel. The reason is the killing.... wait a minute, no it isn't. The reason is not the killing of three Jewish young men, who already trained or served in the Israeli army by god knows who. That is not the reason. It is simply the nature of the zionist beast manifesting itself over and over again. The State of Israel is doing what it did for the last 66 years, every single day, and that is bombing, murdering, and oppressing a whole people. Read more
